摘要

在两个实验中,老鼠被训练去按一个位于中央的杠杆,这个杠杆会立即提供食物强化,并打开一个光信号,指示下一步食物奖励的位置。在老鼠学会按压杠杆并利用光线线索寻找食物后,立即加强按压杠杆的行为就停止了。在实验1中,大鼠在t迷宫中继续按压杠杆以获取奖励位置信息,而对照组则依附于实验组以获取奖励数量,条件强化表现为完全消除按压杠杆的行为。在实验2中,在8臂放射状迷宫中测试的大鼠也继续按下一个杠杆,这个杠杆不会立即产生强化,但会提供一个灯光提示,表明迷宫中随机选择的哪条手臂含有食物;然而,在每次试验中,当同一手臂含有食物时,杠杆按压明显下降。实验之间和实验内的测试条件比较表明,杠杆按压的概率随着获得的信息量的增加而增加。讨论了这些发现对元认知的比较意义。

Rats respond for information: Metacognition in a rodent?

In 2 experiments, rats were trained to press a centrally located lever that delivered immediate food reinforcement and turned on a light signal that indicated the location of a further food reward. After rats learned to press the lever and use the light cue to find food, immediate reinforcement for lever pressing was discontinued. In Experiment 1, rats continued to press the lever for information about the location of reward in a T-maze, but control groups yoked to the experimental group for amount of reward, and conditioned reinforcement showed complete extinction of lever pressing. Rats tested on an 8-arm radial maze in Experiment 2 also continued to press a lever that did not yield immediate reinforcement but provided a light cue indicating which randomly chosen arm of the maze contained food; lever pressing declined significantly, however, when the same arm contained food on every trial. Comparisons of testing conditions between and within experiments suggested that probability of lever pressing increased as the amount of information gained increased. The comparative implications of these findings for metacognition are discussed.
